Daily Rate Quartiles and Market Benchmarks

| Undetermined IR35 | 85% | Adverts that omit a published status |
| Leading sector | Legal & Compliance (91%) | Largest hiring cluster in the sample |
| Priced sample | 11 roles | Postings with a stated day rate in the benchmark dataset |
| Regional rate band | a regional rate discount versus London | Location pricing context, not an SDS |
Statutory Standards and Frequently Asked Questions
Cardiff does not create a special IR35 code for Lawyer work. The client SDS should name the Cardiff workplace and delivery model. An inside finding on a Cardiff Lawyer brief typically deducts tax at source, while outside IR35 Lawyer work in Cardiff is billed by a PSC. Local pay sits on a regional rate discount versus London, so a higher Cardiff headline rate can still be inside. Commuting into Cardiff does not, by itself, prove substitution or lack of control. Read the Lawyer Cardiff contract for workplace, hours, and equipment clauses.
